Wasn’t she also caught not paying tax?

His entire fortune is built on the backs of overworked people. No wonder he is trying to manipulate people into working unreasonable amount of hours.
Napolean from Animal Farm: "The truest happiness, he said, lay in working hard and living frugally.”
World calls for this guy to drown in manure
I myself worked 70h/w for the last two weeks. Wouldn’t recommend. This guy is crazy.
He’s not crazy.
He directly benefits from the 70 hours of his workers. He’s manipulative, not crazy.
Three years ago he called for young people to work 60 hours a week. He’s just stepping up his entitled requirements now.
A couple of years ago I worked roughly 65 hours a week for like two months because we were understaffed. I told my boss he had to find someone new as soon as possible. He said he wasn’t even looking. „Everything is fine! You just have to change your methods and work smarter!“
I immediately quit, drove to my doc, told him the story and sat at home for the rest of the period of notice.
Seriously, fuck that guy.
Similar story here, except instead of no help, I got a green nepo hire with a doctored resume that I was expected to babysit. I gave it a couple of months to bake, just to make sure I wasn’t overreacting. Nope, he was useless. I walked.
A week after I was hired by my company, I was working 70 hour weeks for 6 weeks on an 8 day rotation. After that, it was 60 hour weeks for a month. Needless to say, I had a mental health crisis.
Haha, what a cunt.
I bet he gets on great with Rishi.
My first real job was working 12h shifts at a global company’s internal IT helpdesk.
The shifts were alternating day/night periods on an irregular schedule.
I have worked 60 hour weeks, 5 days in a row, and that shit can fuck right off, I can’t even imagine working 70 hour weeks.
I suspect this guy either has worked like crazy to build his company up from the ground and believe that his employees should feel the same drive as he did as the owner, or that he has never worked close to that much in a week, and is just looking at a pie chart of the available hours in the day.
I am glad for the job I had back then, even if the hours sucked, I learned a lot, and it made me apriciate the free time I got when I started working normal hours, but I would not wish those hours on anyone, they killed my social life, and even seven years later I have not recovered it.

He can get fucked
They’re not working for the country. What nationalistic hype. They’re working for some asshole who’s making all the money off their labor. India needs even more corrections to the government than the United States.
70 hours a week…
So would he prefer 10 hours a day, every day? Or just 14 hours a day, 5 days a week?
Are they just not supposed to go to school?
I’m pretty sure we’ve seen the end results of this:
The intent is to provide players with a sense of pride and accomplishment for unlocking different heroes.
When your entire existence relies on exploiting the work of the people who are “under you”, of course you want them to work harder, faster and more. They’d crack out the whip if they’d get away with it.
These rotten billionaires don’t care about our little lives or how much we enjoy or very short time on this planet, they only care about maximizing share prices and filling their pockets with bonuses that the workers are earning for them.
Is anyone surprised that persons who work at those levels often have personality disorders?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
“My request is that our youngsters must say ‘This is my country I want to work 70 hours a week’,” he said, adding “this is exactly what Germans and Japanese did after the Second World War.”
Working those extreme hours, he added, will define a culture that ultimately improves India’s government by setting an example.
He added his view that long working hours will help to propel India to become one of the world’s top two economies in coming decades.
Ironically, Infosys – the company Murthy co-founded and served as CEO from 1981 to 2002, recently reported its staff utilization rate is currently 81.8 percent – less than half the 70 hours the former boss wants young Indians to work.
The former CEO also appeared ignorant of the fact that long working hours have created problems elsewhere - including in the nations he wants India to emulate and surpass.
China’s tech industry developed a culture in which 72-hour working weeks became the norm, leading workers to push back, hard against the expectations of overwork and the nation’s courts to agree that employers could not reasonably require long hours.
